My Front Row Seat to F1's Engine: Hospitality
My time as an Assistant in the Formula 1 hospitality suites was a masterclass in high-performance execution. While the world watched the race, I was behind the scenes ensuring the guest experience was just as flawless.
It was a whirlwind of precision and pressure anticipating needs, mastering logistics, and delivering impeccable service at lightning speed. I learned to thrive in controlled chaos, honing my skills in communication, multitasking, and grace under pressure.
It was more than a job, it was a front row seat to the powerful business engine that drives the world's most glamorous sport.
My Global First Step: Beginning the Journey at FIU
My college pursuit started at Florida International University's Global First Year program.
This wasn't just a year of taking classes, it was an essential transition. It was my bridge between Saudi Arabia and the U.S. education system, a year dedicated to building the academic and personal foundation I would need to succeed.
The G1Y program was where I made connections with people from all around the world, refine my study habits, and solidify my goals. It taught me the discipline I once used on the tennis court could be applied in my daily life.
That year was more than a line on a resume. It was the crucial starting point that gave me the confidence and tools to pursue my dreams. Every journey has a beginning, and FIU was mine.
